mr. lee: i ask my distinguished colleague, the senator from texas, a series of questions with regard to this concept to make d.c. listen. you know, it's interesting that we have this discussion right now at a time in our history when never has it been easier for so many people throughout the country with so few resources to be heard by so many. in the past you had to own a newspaper or perhaps in more recent years you had to own a radio station or a television company or something like that to be heard by a lot of people. but these days pretty much anyone can gain access to a telephone or to the internet. they can send an e-mail. they can submit a post. it's one of the things that has made possible a ground swell of people. you mentioned just a few minutes ago 1.6 million americans just in the last few weeks signing a petition asking for congress to make a decision to protect the american people from the harmful effects of obamacare. they want government funded just as we want government fund
